I will be porting a program from DOS to OS/2, and need to implement
some graphics drawing functions.  For example, I need to call a
function that will draw a rectangle, etc.

Can I use PM to do that?  I *don't* want my application to be event
driven in what I understand is the usual PM sense.  That is, I don't 
want the graphical objects to get any messages.  I just want to be
able to call primitive graphic functions.  Can I do this?

Also, regarding text fonts, are they scaled on the fly?  If so, does
the processor have to calculate each character as it's being displayed?
(This would seem a little dumb.)  Or is there some kind of font
cache?

Thanks for any responses.  Please reply by email if possible to:
